    Gore Mountain Conditions

    I don't know what is planned. But for the last few days you couldn't get from twister/showcase over to wild air/arena to avoid that last pitch at the bottom of showcase. With all the snow and all the traffic it will likely get pretty bumped up making it rough for lower intermediates. Of course...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    If I recall correctly the green (peaceful valley?) from the Hudson is pretty flat. Not cedars flat but flat enough that skating is required. tom

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    Trappers in NC was good the last time I was there (pre covid). Bar Vino in NC gets good reviews. Op Freidricks in Chestertown also has good food. Basils has always been good but I'm not sure what going on there. tom

    First Time to Gore Mountain

    I'll suggest the high peaks chair, which will be running. Cloud to Santonini and cloud to little cloud are nice intermediate runs. You can also take cloud to headwaters, which will get you to the summit quad without having to go down pine knot (pine knot should be fine early in the day but like...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    FWIW , today was good skiing. Yes, it would have been better with more lifts, but it was very good. I have no inside knowledge but agree with Harvey that BR and north are likely Friday. They were blowing on chatty and rumor today. Tom

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    That’s true, but it doesn’t mean that people should be skiing really fast in a slow zone. (And I’m not saying you implied that) There are plenty of other places to go fast. Conditions were great today. Lower Darby is my pick of the day. But couldn’t go wrong anywhere. Tom

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    I think there have been significant improvements for mid week lifts over the last 5-6 years. Last year was really good and my guess is that there were doing all they could to spread out the crowds (and it was pretty crowded mid week last year). This yeas isn't as good as recent years as many...

    Hotronics

    I'm less unhappy with my cheap heated socks as I think I'm learning to live with their limits and my expectations. I'm now setting them on low before leaving the house, this keeps my feet fairly warm for the drive to the hill, about 20 minutes. I leave them on low and my toes get cold but not...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    It was a great day today. I was on groomers and everything skied well. I left around 1:30 and conditions were holding up well although I was on blues the last hour or so. Gondola was running when I left. I have no idea when it started up. Tom

    I’ve had the same idea.

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    As you would expect conditions were really good today. Open pit, top ridge and wild air were my picks of the day. Even a foot of snow is no match for the wind by the saddle. Blown down to the ice in the normal spots. All good once beyond the twister turnoff. Tom

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    I won't bother saying which trails were scratchy late in the day, since that will be irrelevant tomorrow! But wild air skied amazing at 3:30. No snow yet at the glen but my money is on a foot+. Tom

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    AE2 was rough this morning. I managed 2 runs before heading in. Conditions on the lower mountain were very good and it was empty. Ironic that tickets were sold out. It will be warmer tomorrow especially afternoon, so I expect a much bigger crowd. Tom

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    When it’s a relatively small amount of snow over real hard pack, ( like it’s been over the last week) I’ve found that the groomed trails are best the following day. Tom

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    I was almost boxed in parked in lot D. I was parked straight in facing the access road and later the attendants put a row of cars behind me. Then people parked on the side of the road. It wasn’t pretty. Tom

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    Agree with conditions assessment. Excellent overall. I left around 1:30 and it was holding up pretty well. Tom
